Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fergus,_Earl_of_Buchan
Fergus of Buchan was the last native Gaelic Mormaer of Buchan, and only the third to 
be known by name as Mormaer. Fergus appears to have had strong connections in 
Fife, and it is possible that his father (if he was his father) Colbán was a Fifer. A 
charter issued by Fergus appears to have survived. The charter is a feudal charter 
granting lands to a subordinate. The charter had a few witnesses with French names, 
presumably a phenomenon related to his Comyn connections. Fergus had no male 
heirs, and married his only daughter Marjory to William Comyn, bringing Gaelic control 
of the Mormaership to an end. On Fergus' death, Buchan became the first native 
mormaerdom to pass into the hands of a foreign family

He died sometime before 1214, possibly much earlier.
